I recently just got offered up the R1 shop...

Problem is I am ordering a R1S, and I still have not sat in one to know if its going to work for me and my family.

I have seen one, the test mule with the striped paint. But they would not allow me to go hands on with it.

I have driven the test mule R1T.. But the R1S is different.

I contacted the first drive people, and the soonest they could have me look at one is middle of October, and then it would still be a R1T..

I am hoping there is someone in the Denver area that has one, that I can come see it, sit in it, and whatever else you are willing, before I make the commitment to buy one.

Anyone?

Hoping I can do this over this coming weekend?

Not sure how the SC would feel about me just showing up to look at one, if they even have one.

I guarantee they have a whole bunch at the SC, but probably not ones they would let you sit in or drive. I’ve got a T or I would be happy to you guys check it out and drive it.

There appears to be an R1S on Turo in Denver. It would be $235 for the day but it would be worth it if you have any doubts it will work for you.

R1S delivered 2/2023
Brian, (Brian here as well). I’m in Westminster fairly close to you. More than happy to let you check it out. Don’t let the inflatable dolls scare you off—lol! J/K. DM me and we can set something up for this weekend.

Let me see what Brian @opnwide has for this weekend, and make a plan from there. He is A LOT closer.

Shout out to @opnwide for meeting up with me.. And giving me that hands on interaction with a R1S that I needed..

Now I got to sit down with the wife, and figure out if I need R1 in a T or S...

Edit: The flake in the silver on his truck is "off the chain"!

From another Brian to Brian and Brian, I am happy you got to see the S in person! I can say the silver looks just as good on the T :cool:
